There's nothing wrong with the letter just the timing. Everyone's hoping the meeting will happen. That's the real argument there. Still hopeful though

I was really hoping the meeting would take place.

It would be hard not to be. In my defense that took me maybe 15 minutes. DJT has TEAMS of people that are supposed to do this kind of stuff. Either he's almost totally unsupervised, he really DID let Eric write it, or all the people in those teams totally fell down on the job. At the very least he (they?) needs to learn to get the name of the country right if he's hoping to negotiate with their leader. It's the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea. The first three words of the name might be so much hogwash, but if you want something from somebody you put it in language they'll listen to.

It's a little too forgiving since NK neglected to send someone to Singapore for the pre-summit meet up. However, your letter is much better than the President's in my view :)
